Steven Youtsey commented on NIFI-548:
-------------------------------------
1. Not my design. I inherited it when porting from NiFi 2.x to NiFi 3.x.
Original author is Joe. I have made improvements and bug fixes, but kept the
basic design. Yes, it's complicated.
2. It is very tuned for performance and 'blobbing', it used to be called
UDPBlobber. Much effort went into integration testing with a high volume sender.
3. If there's a better design that maintains performance and the blobbing
capability yet provides the desired datagram per flowfile, by all means have at
it.
> Listen UDP should support generation of a flowfile per datagram

> Reporter: Bryan Bende
> Priority: Minor
>
> Listen UDP presently places udp datagrams into a buffer and then once the
> buffer reaches some trigger size/age it turns that into a flowfile. There
> should be an option to turn each received datagram into a flowfile. This is
> helpful for cases where each datagram is a complete object by itself but that
> isnt necessarily trivially demarcated if it were concatenated with other
> datagrams.
